Diagnostic approach for incidental pulmonary nodules.
Review in The Korean journal of internal medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Lung cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide and is often diagnosed at an advanced stage, with poor survival outcomes. Early detection and appropriate management of incidental pulmonary nodules, frequently identified through low-dose computed tomography screening, are critical for improving prognosis and reducing lung cancer mortality. Established guidelines, including those of the Fleischner Society and American College of Radiology, provide structured recommendations for risk assessment, surveillance, and intervention. Recent advancements in diagnostic modalities, such as positron emission tomography, endobronchial ultrasound, electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy, and robot-assisted bronchoscopy, have enhanced the diagnostic accuracy while minimizing procedural risks. A multidisciplinary approach that incorporates these technologies is essential for optimizing patient care. This review summarizes the current strategies for evaluating and managing solitary pulmonary nodules, including risk stratification models, imaging features, and biopsy techniques, thereby providing a comprehensive overview for clinicians.
